Came to have lunch with my daughters during the week. My server was amazing! She was friendly, super knowledgeable and on top of our table. Food was delicious and we didn't have to wait long for it. I ordered a frozen tamarindo margarita from their happy hour($7), which was delicious! Overall the restaurant was clean, food was amazing and the service was even better! read more

The hype for this place is not for the food. Mediocre food. That's the most I can say about it. Service staff during the day is not friendly. This is just a place to get drinks at night. Don't waste your money or time eating at this place. read more

El Remedio - Dried and tasteless enchiladas. - Mexican Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Solid unique spot for a nice dinner. Interior has a cool vibe, nice drink menu with many options, actually got the margarita flight which had some decent pours and came with a nice presentation. Interesting menu from some typical Mexican food along with some sushi options. read more

Chips were stale. Salsa was spicy, but lacked depth of flavor. It was basically tomatoes and onion with Serrano. Drinks were good. Food on the menu didn't seem appealing to me, too fried and heavy. If meh had a place this would be it. read more

I've heard so many great things about this place but I'd say it was good but overall average. We decided to stop in for lunch and try out their $5 margs, do yourself a favor and don't do what we did. The "margaritas" did not taste like margarita. It's hard to describe but they were bitter and bland, not balanced at all. I get they're $5 but I wouldn't serve an inferior product while trying to get people in the door with that special. I decide to tell my waitress about it and she was annoyed and responded with "well it's a margarita" well it didn't taste like it. Anyways I order a Moscow mule and that was quite good. The cocktails here are not appropriately priced they're mostly $15 each. I've been to nicer restaurants in nicer areas that charge less. Onto the food it was good I don't have any complaints. I ordered the Tierra y Mar burrito($18) which was pretty good I liked the combination of flavors. My friend ordered ceviche which she seemed to enjoy. Overall I don't think I'd be back. Downtown prices outside of downtown don't make sense to me. There's no reason two drinks and two Average entrees should be $70 with tip. read more

It was my 1st time at their brick & mortar location. I visited on a Friday night. The ambiance is upbeat, with live music after 10pm! I sat at the bar and my server Tati did an outstanding job, from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious. The ranch water hit the spot. The only drawback was the live music being extremely loud for such a small place. It made it hard to carry a conversation with anyone, and so I left. Come check them out for yourself tho! read more

Brutally honest review incoming. We saw the social media hype and had to try it out for ourselves. Our first thoughts - creative decorations and a good sized menu (drinks and food) to choose from. The restaurant itself was FREEZING, we had to go back outside to get extra jackets. We ordered the margarita flight ($55) and the experience of it was pretty cool. They brought it out with a giant sparkler at the end of the plane. Drink review: Don't do it. They look cool, but that's where it ends. They came out and they were hot, even though it was in a glass full of ice. They tasted like it was all mixer, no alcohol. The two in our party who were drinking them are LIGHT weights and they didn't even feel anything. They soon got bad headaches and nausea from them because they were just straight sugar, nothing else. Food review: The quesabirria tacos were good. Very greasy, but we had no complaints. The shrimp empanadas were HORRIBLE. We took one bite and that was it. The shrimp were extremely extremely fishy, to the point where they were inedible. They also lacked the crunch of empanadas. The Gringo Roll was good, everyone liked it. The Hot Cheeto Roll really needed something else. It really lacked flavor. The street tacos were good, no complaints, lots of guacamole on top. Service review: Not very attentive or overly friendly. We sat without water refills for extended periods of time. Overall, two stars. Without the tacos, it would only be one. We do NOT recommend. read more

I was here last week. I ordered the street tacos and they were pretty standard. We also ordered enchiladas and birria quesadilla, they liked the birria not the enchiladas. The saddest part, was the rice... it was hard, like eating tiny rocks and didn't taste the best. I think it was old :/ The decor of the restaurant was nice though read more

Came here on. Friday early afternoon with family (5 ppl) from out of town, NY. We got seated immediately. Our server, Carlos, immediately approached our table to take our orders. He was AMAZING!! the service from Carlos was top notch the entire time. He was super attentive,, courteous and amiable. Great time overall! Great ambiance, place full of lively colors Food was good and generous portions. However, everything, i mean everything we try to order for breakfast.... they was out. It was friday and we came specifically for brunch but there was no brunch food. Disappointment. read more

El Remedio - Decor - Mexican Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I was invited to this restaurant by a friend. I had been to their food truck at one point. Of course, as a brick and mortar they have way more options when it comes to food on their menu. They even have sushi. We sat outside in their patio because we each had our dogs. It is dog friendly in the patio. You do have to walk inside the restaurant and let them know that you'll be sitting outside with your dog. The patio has a few tables. They have umbrellas for shade. If it gets hot, they have a big ceiling fan and another fan that I noticed. We started with complimentary chips, salsa and beans. The salsa was too spicy for me. The beans were perfect. I had a ranch water for my drink. They do have plenty of options of drinks to choose from. For my meal I had the Remedio natural roll. I took it to go and it was great a few hours later. My friends had the shrimp empanada and the birria tacos. They both enjoyed their meals as well. I didn't catch the waitress name, but she was very nice. She offered us extra water for our dogs. Inside the restaurant seems very fun. Definitely a good place to have a little get together. I was informed that they do have a room you can reserve for a private party. No charge for that. Parking is available on side, but it is shared with other businesses. I didn't really have a problem finding parking on a Saturday. read more

The food is delicious!! The service is outstanding!! I love the ambiance of this restaurant! I had the Arranchera sushi, which is spicy. Delicious!!! With the red raspberry margarita! My wife had the ceviche mixto and the piña colada. Everything was great! Would definitely recommend to everyone!!! read more

I would come here again for their birria tacos. The meat was really tender and I thought the consume was really good! My only complaint was that they came out already a bit soggy but if you eat quick enough (which I couldn't because I'm a slow eater) it's not a problem! The inside was a bit dark and loud but the staff were very friendly and would check on us often. read more

Staff is super friendly. Never knew about the brand as a food truck, so my experience is just on the restaurant. I can tell they put a good amount of money into the decor and presentation of the facility. Things still feel new, clean and well-maintained. There's this interesting vibe like everywhere you look is intended for a instagram moment. Menu was somewhat extensive, but at least (7) items weren't available to order. Also, the soda is flat and unsweetened tea doesn't exist. Shrimp empanadas were really good and the only dish that was served at the proper temp. Wife got the brunch birria chilaquiles and it was room temp. I got the birria burrito and although it had the grill marks, was warm at best. The broth was super good though and not greasy in anyway. Doubt we'd go back, except for maybe drinks and apps. Can't say I'd crave this spot over other places I've been to. read more

Very bad service. needs management team to take a look at their business. just left there and waitress had an attitude. when asked if chips and salsa could be served, she stated they didn't have any made. mind you, it was 1pm on a Sunday afternoon. when our food was brought, she never asked of anything was needed. definitely need to work on their customer service if they plan to keep customers. read more

Finally had a chance to try this spot and was not disappointed! From the lively atmosphere to the delicious food, this place was a good time. Their Food Truck hit legendary status and now its time for the restaurant to create its own story. The space has plenty of seating, tables and booths, with a small private room, a nice sized patio, and a large bar with seating. The decor is bright, fun and most certainly festive! I went with the Baja Shrimp Tacos and also had a few bites of a Birria Quesadilla, which was enormous. Both were crazy good but I did love my shrimp tacos! Exactly what I was looking for and something I will come back to get again. Bursting flavors with the fresh ingredients did it for me. I'll be back soon for some drinks and more delicious food. They are extending their hours so that will make it easier! Cheers! read more

Visited their brick and mortar location a few months ago and it had some hits and misses. Most of the food was spot on. The nachos and sushi rolls were delicious! The empanadas were pretty good too. I got a flight of margaritas and they arrived watered down but still overly sweet. My friend's drink wasn't very good. I tasted no alcohol anywhere in the drinks. There were only 2 other occupied tables in restaurant and our food and drinks took forever! Our server was more occupied with the table of 10 celebrating a birthday and getting drunk, then she was checking on us and providing refills. The overall feel of the restaurant was fun and vibrant and it would probably be fun on the weekend and with better service. read more

El Remedio - Bar area - Mexican Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

All the times I've drove by it since it's opening, it's been popping. We went on Saturday night around 6PM, so our wait time was around 20 minutes for 2. They took over the old location of Willie's, so it's nice to have indoor and outdoor seating. Food: very good and also very casual! First time having birria tacos, and it was DANK. And it's pretty big and easy to share food. FREE CHIPS AND SALSA, and it's good chips. Service: this is the star dock. Our personal waitress was not great, rarely even around. Other servers were waved down for water refill. But the other tables look well attended to, and the bar looked popping! Would come back for sure! read more

The food was alright, but some items were a bit low brow. Cheese dip was more like velveta, not the lovely queso Blanco we know amd love in many variations. The Ramen was a fun twist and the Margherita was definitely a hit. I think the pizza barrier style could evolve, it was soggy crust with barria braised meat and sauce. It is for a casual bite of fun. Atmosphere was eclectic, but up beat and the space was large but packed pretty close in some areas. read more

Alexandria was great at attending us. She was very attentive and made sure we were good on drinks/food ! Everything was good .

I had been following this spot since it was a food truck but never had the opportunity to try them. I finally went once they got their restaurant location with a friend and OMG the food and drinks were sooooooo good. The decor was super cute as well. Surprised that it was located in a strip mall kinda spot and parking was a little limited but we managed to find a spot in the back. The ceviche was fresh and so filling bc I absolutely had to get the birria tacos which were hands down the best I've ever had!!! We enjoyed the vibe and music and had a good time. Service was good but thankful we went early as this place gets packed quickly! I personally think the Margarita Flight was overpriced but I guess with the economy being the way it is right now, everything is pretty pricey. Despite that, I would still definitely return! read more

I went to a birthday celebration in Los Angeles, Rancho Cucamonga specifically, at a restaurant called Mama Por Dios. The restaurant had selfie backgrounds, Instagram ready cocktails, some servers performing various chants, and a pretty intriguing menu. The site calls itself Nuevo Latino, and as Bad Bunny played in the background, a line of servers bringing an Ace of Spades bottles replete with fireworks came out with the cries of "Pari! Pari! Pari!" going hard as the table followed suit. The concept and genre struck me as I have been to similar locations but couldn't pin the concept. I know it's odd to start a restaurant review mentioning another dining place 1200 miles away but I need to set the table so to speak as El Remedio has, in my opinión, created a new cuisine / genre / concept I would call the Nuevo Mexican American experience. I've been to the food truck in the past where El Remedio was slinging it's high concept food truck sushi and it's excellent tacos. The birria has always been on point and as one of the first taco joints in San Antonio to get it right, it was only time until Joshua Palacios and his team would get a brick and mortar and hit their stride. The restaurant on the Northside by Huebner and Fredericksburg near the USAA campus has been uniquely adorned with graffiti, murals, and colorful pieces of art. One thing the restaurant is, its loud. Loud in it's presentation, loud in the music that is constantly blaring, and loud in the ambiance as folks try to talk over the music. I am not complaining, and I'll explain why in a bit but you've been warned, as the first time I went, my homie just couldn't take it and we had to leave. I did manage to try to the shrimp empanadas and they were good but I knew I had to come back for a proper experience. I brought my son and his girlfriend and they immediately were taken aback by the energy the place had at 9PM on a Thursday. Peso Pluma blared through the speakers, a 40th birthday celebration going crazy, and a rowdy (such a San Antonio word) group of folks watching the TNF Game on the screens were enjoying several drinks. We ordered several plates. The birria pizza was filled to the brim with the famous birria meat; affixed between two large tortillas, the consommé that accompanied the pizza was rich and brothy, albeit a bit greasy, but definitely tasty. As I delved into the quesobirria tacos I ordered, the champagne showers started up again and the wait staff formed a chorus line and led a fireworks laden Tomamas El Toro (not sure if that's the bulls name but it should be) to the bday celebration. The Vegas style procession isn't lost on me and fits right in, with the Ace of Spades replaced with a specialty cocktail flight. I had a chamoy margarita that was good, strong, and kept me floaty. The drink was loaded with spicy chamoy and mango syrup and gives a good balance to a hefty drink. The El Remedio Roll is a perfect testament to what's going on here. My favorite sushi place Yellowfish Sushi masterfully blends the flavor profiles in Mexican sushi in what they call JapaMex. El Remedio is the natural progression to that where they go all in on the flavors, with beef, chicken, bacon, avocado, cream cheese, and mozzarella and is drizzled with tangy eel sauce. It's not for the faint of heart and will challenge your concept of what is sushi but this is the point. As Rancho Hulmide bumped in the background, I could see everything come together. 2023 was a golden year for Mexican American fusion, where a genre of music brought together several generations of Mexican Americans into the fold. The generational exchange follows the cross cultural exchange as noticed by the cuisine. Lastly, the social / economic exchange of bringing a very Las Vegas style environment that may be prohibitive / intimidating to many, but giving it a puro vibe brings a unique experience to San Anto that we simply haven't had before. We should celebrate what Joshua and his team have created, even if it doesn't appeal to you. Eventually, many others will similarly branch out and create a fusion, just like Tex Mex did over a century ago, and you'll get an experience that you will enjoy. In the meantime, go get a flight and belt out some Grupo Frontera with the homies. Pro tip: Get reservations for groups larger than 5. It gets packed. read more

Went here today for a birthday lunch and was really disappointed. I've been looking forward to going to this place forever, even when they were just a food truck. First, is this a club or a restaurant? The music was blaring!!!! It made it impossible to have any sort of convo. I'm all for music but this was uncomfortable. The food was very pricey for the portion, not a good value. I had the California roll which was actually pretty good. For the size I thought 12.00 was reasonable. I had the street tacos and added cheese per the waiter's recommendation. It was very cheesy ( too much) and just didn't taste good. 19.00!!!! Crazy for the portion. I also had a shrimp empanada which was also okay. I'm not a big fish person but it was just okay. I'm glad I went because it was on my bucket list of SA restaurants but I don't think I would go again. It's cheaper and better tasting just to go to a local food truck. There was nothing unique about the taste that would make me crave this place specifically. The service was also not all that great. Our waiter seemed annoyed. They also, at one point told us they ran out of plates. We had a cake for the birthday boy and needed plates. How do you run out of plates and if you do, improvise. Use to go containers....not difficult. read more

El Remedio - 19.00 street tacos with cheese. Just okay, nothing special about the taste. - Mexican Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I would have never thought this restaurant would be found in a shopping center in the med center. As a big fan of anything birria it's nice to find a dedicated menu with a plethora of birria items. Our table had quesi birria tacos, a birria quesadilla, and birria nachos. The birria and consome was so good, savored every bite I got to have. My friend recommend their choriqueso and their tortillas was so good. It's a pretty fun vibe but get ready for a slight wait. Luckily they have a bar available to get some drinks to sip on. read more

Heard a lot about this restaurant & bar. Actually the first time we saw this, noticed the line to get in. Early Friday about 630, no line or reservation needed. However if your party size is more than 7, yes reservation suggested. Noted there is a private room available. We started off with drinks. Wanted a tamarind margarita however discovered restaurant ran out of Tamarind margaritas. Ended up with a wannabe Whiskey Sour & Beerita very much a margarita with beer. Noted the whiskey sour did not taste at all like a whiskey sour. Recommend you stick the margaritas. The whiskey sour was on the bill as a soda. Impressive was the bean dip, salsa & chips. The bean dip was amazingly scrumptious. Our original waitress was come and go, seemed that she was also the hostess. We were able to get another waitress to help us. Now on to the food. Wanted the fish taco, however discovered that was tilapia. Not my preference. We did have the shrimp tacos, which were amazingly scrumptious. Especially the sauce drizzled over the tacos. The tacos were on double corn tortillas. 3 nice decent taco size, no sides. Spouse had the Birria tacos, which were very thick & tasty, served with adobo sauce. The tacos were both tasty & more than enough. The crowd here seemed a bit younger, however there were some families as well. Suggest you try this establishment. read more

PSA: their food truck is not open at the moment. I got word from a server that the plan is to open it back up in the summer. But no solid plans have been made yet. This place is a vibe. We went on a Friday night. The music was bumpin, the restaurant was full, and everyone seemed to be having a good time. PROS: food, staff, music, service, birthday celebrations, large party friendly Food was great! Each of us (4) got a different form of their Birria. Super flavorful, the reviews did not disappoint. The staff was super friendly. The host was kind, and our server Santo was on his game. He got his steps in that night for sure. The chips they give you are thick and crispy. I love anything super crunchy, but it may not be for everyone. Their salsa was a bit spicy for me, but if you like you salsa hot then you'll love theirs. I got the Birria ramen and my husband got the pizza. Their Margs were tasty too. Whoever their DJ was that night would sure be great for a party or wedding. We saw they had a few different surprise shot platters for your birthday (I'm not sure what else to call it other than a platter lol). We saw a plane, and a duck, with sparklers. The servers gather around your table and sing happy birthday while blowing a whistle, waving lights, and singing happy birthday. Don't bring your shy friend here for Theo birthday lol. There is indoor and outdoor seating, and what looked like a private room as well for larger parties. CONS: music, maybe not super kid friendly I don't think I would bring smaller kids here, especially not on a Friday night (unless they love to party, then go for it). But I think it would be way to loud for most younger kids. Sitting at the bar, I couldn't hear what my friends were saying about 90% of the time. I loved the music don't get me wrong, but I might as well be sitting in front of the speakers. The whistles were cool, but they were also super loud. read more

First impression: chill, loving the atmosphere. Open. There wasn't any seating at a table so my mother and I sat at the bar. Service with bartender, Santos, was great. He was attentive and very kind. Asked us our names which was such a polite thing to do! My mom and I ordered Paloma's to drink, and queso fundido and birria tacos, regular. Paloma - 9.5/10 super delicious! Chips and salsa - 10/10 that salsa I thought was basic tomato salsa but wow does it have a delayed spicy kick to it! It's awesome! And the chips are delicious! Queso fundido- 5/10 not a fan of the queso. I would prefer they use only Oaxaca. From my understanding it's mixed with Monterrey queso. Birria tacos - 9/10 delicious! Don't have anything to compare it to but I loved this plate! I would've liked more cilantro on the side but otherwise it was *chefs kiss* read more

I came in shortly after open on a weekday and was pleasantly surprised to find they have an awesome happy hour menu. They gave me complimentary chips and salsa/beans which were very good. The salsa is a bit on the spicy side but the beans help to neutralize so make sure you utilize both! I ordered a bottled beer and they brought it out with a water to accompany. The server was extremely helpful with my questions about the menu and patient as it was my first time at this establishment. I ordered the Quesi Birria Tacos and they came out within 10 minutes. The side of consome that is included is very flavorful and these Birria tacos are not to be missed! The venue is lively, with music playing and their bar space is extremely large, I imagine if you came here on a weekend night, it's an electric scene!

Not so family friendly at night. Loud music and everything else was loud... this place has potential for causing hearing loss. Food less than average and the adult beverages were more like kids beverages... they definitely poured light. If was here to attend a party with friends, their company would improve my rating. 1 star for my first experience here. I suspect they may have been very good when they first opened. But maybe a change in management might have focused on their bottom line instead of customer retention. Try lowering the volume so I don't have to yell to place my order. Use the correct recipe for decent adult beverages. Simplify the menu and make dining in more family friendly. read more
